Final Broadcast Ratings: March 29, 2015
CBS swept the ratings on Sunday night, thinks to the overrun or NCAA Basketball, into the 7 p.m. hour. The game drew 14.8 million viewers and a 4.3 rating in the A18-49 demographic. That helped 60 MINUTES averagea 2.3 in the demo, along with 13.8 million viewers.
NBC was second, with help from the iHEARTRADIO MUSIC AWARDS. The awards themselves didn't to great, getting less than 5.3 million viewers and a 1.7 demo rating. But it is about twice the deme number DATELINE has been getting this spring, in the timeslot.
ABC took a big hit, with each of the three dramas posting season lows in the A18-49 numbers. The 1.7 by ONCE UPON A TIME is a series low, tying the Music Awards for the third best A18-49 rating of the night.
THE LAST MAN ON EARTH has been dropping in the ratings, but for the second week in a row, it has had nothing but repeats as a lead in. Given that, the rise in both viewership and demo is a positive. I expect to see FOX give THE LAS MAN ON EARTH at least a 13 episode order, for next fall.
